Abstract:
Unpaired image translation is a challenging problem in computer vision, while existing generative adversarial networks (GANs) models mainly use the adversarial loss and other constraints to model. But the degree of constraint imposed on the generator and the discriminator is not enough, which results in bad image quality. In addition, we find that the current GANs-based models have not yet been implemented by adding an auxiliary domain, which is used to constrain the generator. To solve the problem mentioned above, we propose a multiscale and multilevel GANs (MMGANs) model for image translation. In this model, we add an auxiliary domain to constrain generator, which combines this auxiliary domain with the original domains for modelling and helps generator learn the detailed content of the image. Then we use multiscale and multilevel feature matching to constrain the discriminator. The purpose is to make the training process as stable as possible. Finally, we conduct experiments on six image translation tasks. The results verify the validity of the proposed model.

Abstract:
It is common practice to constrain the output space of a neural network with the final layer to a problem-specific value range. However, for many tasks it is desired to restrict the output space for each input independently to a different subdomain with a non-trivial geometry, e.g. in safety-critical applications, to exclude hazardous outputs sample-wise. We propose ConstraintNet—a scalable neural network architecture which constrains the output space in each forward pass independently. Contrary to prior approaches, which perform a projection in the final layer, ConstraintNet applies an input-dependent parametrization of the constrained output space. Thereby, the complete interior of the constrained region is covered and computational costs are reduced significantly. For constraints in form of convex polytopes, we leverage the vertex representation to specify the parametrization. The second modification consists of adding an auxiliary input in form of a tensor description of the constraint to enable the handling of multiple constraints for the same sample. Finally, ConstraintNet is end-to-end trainable with almost no overhead in the forward and backward pass. We demonstrate ConstraintNet on two regression tasks: First, we modify a CNN and construct several constraints for facial landmark detection tasks. Second, we demonstrate the application to a follow object controller for vehicles and accomplish safe reinforcement learning in this case. In both experiments, ConstraintNet improves performance and we conclude that our approach is promising for applying neural networks in safety-critical environments.

Abstract:
In this paper, we present a complete design framework for an adaptive multiple agent fuzzy constraint-based controller (MAFCC) based on fuzzy penumbra constraint processing in each fuzzy constraint subnetwork collaborating with a connected constraint network and its corresponding semantic modeling in a first-order predicate calculus (FOPC) language, with application to a complex hydraulic system. The concept of “multiple agent” and “fuzzy constraint subnetwork” in a complex control system is introduced and some basic definitions of penumbra fuzzy constraint processing in a constraint subnetwork and the collaboration with an overall connected constraint network and its semantic modeling are addressed. As a result, a human agent interacts with system agents and allows the constraints to be added or deleted on-line according to the constraints imposed from the outside environment. Near-optimal system performance is accomplished by restricting all the penumbra constraints to be satisfied in each constraint subnetwork simultaneously which are interconnected as a result of constraints that exist between each of them. Following the principle of constraint satisfaction and fuzzy local propagation reasoning, each individual system agent is now constrained to behave in a certain fashion as dictated by the overall constraint network. In addition, the constraint network in MAFCC system provides an update strategy which makes a real time adaptive hydraulic control for all 20 cities possible.

Abstract:
AbstractMost topology optimization methods seek optimal topologies that satisfy a minimum compliance with a pre-specified volume constraint in the design domain. However, practical designs often include various functional constraints and the optimal solid volume ratios are unknown a priori, which implies a gap between topology optimization methods and practical designs in industries. This paper studies the performance-based topology optimization (PTO) problem that searches for the optimal topology with minimum compliance to satisfy the pre-specified functional constraints without a pre-specified volume constraint. A novel element-based evolutionary switching method (ESM), which can automatically adjust solid volume ratio and material distribution, is developed and implemented using the commercial finite element software ABAQUS. The effects of displacement constraints on the optimal topologies are investigated, and the differences between PTO problems and the topology optimization problem which has a volume constraint are discussed. Numerical examples demonstrate that the optimal topologies are mainly determined by the load pattern and locally changed with respect to the location of the active displacement constraints. In addition, the displacement constraints to a large extent control the solid volume ratio of optimal topologies according to the allowable displacements in PTO problems. Finally, the proposed ESM could provide conservative solutions to the topology optimization with multiple displacement constraints problems.

Abstract:
A novel sequential convex (SCvx) optimization scheme via the Chebyshev pseudospectral method is proposed for efficiently solving the hypersonic reentry trajectory optimization problem which is highly constrained by heat flux, dynamic pressure, normal load, and multiple no-fly zones. The Chebyshev-Gauss Legend (CGL) node points are used to transcribe the original dynamic constraint into algebraic equality constraint; therefore, a nonlinear programming (NLP) problem is concave and time-consuming to be solved. The iterative linearization and convexification techniques are proposed to convert the concave constraints into convex constraints; therefore, a sequential convex programming problem can be efficiently solved by convex algorithms. Numerical results and a comparison study reveal that the proposed method is efficient and effective to solve the problem of reentry trajectory optimization with multiple constraints.

Abstract:
Clustering on heterogeneous networks which consist of multi-typed objects and links has proved to be a useful technique in many scenarios. Although numerous clustering methods have achieved remarkable success, current clustering methods for heterogeneous networks tend to consider only internal information of the dataset. In order to utilize background domain knowledge, we propose a general framework for clustering heterogeneous data considering multiple user-provided constrains. Specifically, we summarize that three types of manual constraints on the object can be used to guide the clustering process. Then we propose the User- HeteClus algorithm to solve the key issues in the case of star-structure heterogeneous data, which incorporating the user constraint into similarity measurement between central objects. Experiments on a real-world dataset show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

Abstract:
The multiple motion regime (free/constrained) dynamics of hybrid parameter multiple body (HPMB) systems is addressed. Impact response has characteristically been analyzed using impulse-momentum techniques. Unfortunately, the classical methods for modeling complex HPMB systems are energy based and have proven ineffectual at modeling impact. The problems are exacerbated by the problematic nature of time varying constraint conditions. This paper outlines the reformulation of a recently developed HPMB system modeling methodology into an impulse-momentum formulation, which systematically handles the constraints and impact. The starting point for this reformulation is a variational calculus based methodology. The variational roots of the methodology allows rigorous equation formulation which includes the complete nonlinear hybrid differential equations and boundary conditions. Because the methodology presented in this paper is formulated in the constraint-free subspace of the configuration space, both holonomic and nonholonomic constraints are automatically satisfied. As a result, the constraint-addition/deletion algorithms are not needed. Generalized forces of constraint can be directly calculated via the methodology, so the condition for switching from one motion regime to another is readily determined. The resulting equations provides a means to determine after impact velocities (and velocity fields for distributed bodies) which provide the after collision initial conditions. Finally the paper demonstrates, via example, how to apply the methodology to contact/impact in robotic manipulators and structural systems.

Trabalho apresentado no âmbito do European Master in Computational Logics, como requisito parcial para obtenção do grau de Mestre em Computational Logics
One of the most important fields in bioinformatics has been the study of protein sequence alignments. The study of homologous proteins, related by evolution, shows the conservation of many amino acids because of their functional and structural importance. One particular relationship between the amino acid sites in the same sequence or between different sequences, is protein-coevolution, interest in which has increased as a consequence of mathematical and computational methods used to understand the spatial, functional and evolutionary dependencies between amino acid sites. The principle of coevolution means that some amino acids are related through evolution because mutations in one site can create evolutionary pressures to select compensatory mutations in other sites that are functionally or structurally related. With the actual methods to detect coevolution, specifically mutual information techniques from the information theory field, we show in this work that much of the information between coevolved sites is lost because of mistakes in the multiple sequence alignment of variable regions. Moreover, we show that using these statistical methods to detect coevolved sites in multiple sequence alignments results in a high rate of false positives. Due to the amount of errors in the detection of coevolved site from multiple sequence alignments, we propose in this work a method to improve the detection efficacy of coevolved sites and we implement an algorithm to fix such sites correcting the misalignment produced in those specific locations. The detection part of our work is based on the mutual information between sites that are guessed as having coevolved, due to their high statistical correlation score. With this information we search for possible misalignments on those regions due to the incorrect matching of amino acids during the alignment. The re-alignment part is based on constraint programming techniques, to avoid the combinatorial complexity when one amino acid can be aligned with many others and to avoid inconsistencies in the alignments. In this work, we present a framework to impose constraints over the sequences, and we show how it is possible to compute alignments based on different criteria just by setting constraint between the amino acids. This framework can be applied not only for improving the alignment and detection of coevolved regions, but also to any desired constraints that may be used to express functional or structural relations among the amino acids in multiple sequences. We show also that after we fix these misalignments, using constraints based techniques, the correlation between coevolved sites increases and, in general, the new alignment is closer to the correct alignment than the MSA alignment. Finally, we show possible future research lines with the objective of overcoming some drawbacks detected during this work.

Abstract:
Predictive multiple suppression methods consist of two main steps: a prediction step, in which multiples are predicted from the seismic data, and a subtraction step, in which the predicted multiples are matched with the true multiples in the data. The last step appears crucial in practice: an incorrect adaptive subtraction method will cause multiples to be sub-optimally subtracted or primaries being distorted, or both. Therefore, we propose a new domain for separation of primaries and multiples via the Curvelet transform. This transform maps the data into almost orthogonal localized events with a directional and spatialtemporal component. The multiples are suppressed by thresholding the input data at those Curvelet components where the predicted multiples have large amplitudes. In this way the more traditional filtering of predicted multiples to fit the input data is avoided. An initial field data example shows a considerable improvement in multiple suppression.

Abstract:
Conventional beamformers can be sensitive to mismatches between presumed and actual steering vectors of the signal-of-interest. A recently proposed class of robust beamformers aim to counteract this problem by using a non-attenuation constraint inside a single hypersphere centered at the presumed steering vector of the signal-of-interest. In an effort to strike a balance between robustness to steering vector error and interference-plus-noise suppression, we propose in this manuscript to use multiple concentric hyperspheres instead of one with different degrees of protection in each. We derive several useful properties of this multiply constrained beamformer and use numerical simulations to show that using two constraints yields improved signal-to-interference-plus-noise-ratio compared to one constraint in certain scenarios, particularly at a large input signal-to-noise-ratio.
The manuscript also includes an overview of conventional beamforming, the mismatch problem and previously proposed robust beamformers.

Full text
Abstract:
A non-linear primary-multiple separation method using curvelets frames is presented. The advantage of this method is that curvelets arguably provide an optimal sparse representation for both primaries and multiples. As such curvelets frames are ideal candidates to separate primaries from multiples given inaccurate predictions for these two data components. The method derives its robustness regarding the presence of noise; errors in the prediction and missing data from the curvelet frame's ability (i) to represent both signal components with a limited number of multi-scale and directional basis functions; (ii) to separate the components on the basis of differences in location, orientation and scales and (iii) to minimize correlations between the coefficients of the two components. A brief sketch of the theory is provided as well as a number of examples on synthetic and real data.

The inversion of multiple geophysical datasets co-operatively is a challenge that I address with the fuzzy cluster method. Techniques to incorporate petrophysical constraints and other data in a robust manner in seismic and magnetotelluric inversion were devised and tested upon synthetic data, and real datasets from Nevada, USA and Kevitsa, Finland. The resulting earth models were demonstrated to be better than with smooth constrained approaches and produced useful outputs for exploration and mining.

Abstract:
Abstract Topology optimization is used for determining the best layout of structural components to achieve predetermined performance goals. The density method which uses material density of each finite element as the design variable is employed. Unlike the most common approach which uses the optimality criteria methods, the topology design problem is formulated as a general optimization problem and is solved by the mathematical programming method. One of the major advantages of this approach is its generality; thus it can solve various problems, e.g. multi-objective and multi-constraint problems. In this study, the structural weight is chosen as the objective function and structural responses such as the compliances, displacements, and the natural frequencies are treated as the constraints. The MSC/NASTRAN finite element code is employed for response analyses. One example with four different optimization formulations was used to demonstrate this approach.

Abstract:
Abstract A new approach to specification and maintenance of feature validity conditions in a multiple-view feature modeling system is presented. Each view of a product contains a feature model. Features are specified declaratively in an object-oriented language, using constraints to specify feature validity conditions. Constraints are also used to specify relations between features. Validation of the feature models is done by a constraint manager that integrates different solving techniques. The constraint graph is mapped by the constraint manager onto constraints that are handled by dedicated solvers. If views are consistent, i.e. their feature models represent the same geometry, feature parameters can be changed. Changes are propagated through link constraints between different views.

Abstract:
This paper synthesises the findings of a set of country studies commissioned by the RISE Programme to explore the influence of politics and power on education sector policymaking and implementation. The synthesis groups the countries into three political-institutional contexts: Dominant contexts, where power is centred around a political leader and a hierarchical governance structure. As the Vietnam case details, top-down leadership potentially can provide a robust platform for improving learning outcomes. However, as the case studies of Ethiopia, Indonesia, Nigeria, and Tanzania illustrate, all-too-often dominant leaders’ goals vis-à-vis the education sector can veer in other directions. In impersonal competitive contexts, a combination of strong formal institutions and effective processes of resolving disagreements can, on occasion, result in a shared commitment among powerful interests to improve learning outcomes—but in none of the case studies is this outcome evident. In Peru, substantial learning gains have been achieved despite messy top-level politics. But the Chilean, Indian, and South African case studies suggest that the all-too-common result of rule-boundedness plus unresolved political contestation over the education sector’s goals is some combination of exaggerated rule compliance and/or performative isomorphic mimicry. Personalised competitive contexts (Bangladesh, Ghana, and Kenya for example) lack the seeming strengths of either their dominant or their impersonal competitive contexts; there are multiple politically-influential groups and multiple, competing goals—but no credible framework of rules to bring coherence either to political competition or to the education bureaucracy. The case studies show that political and institutional constraints can render ineffective many specialised sectoral interventions intended to improve learning outcomes. But they also point to the possibility that ‘soft governance’ entry points might open up some context-aligned opportunities for improving learning outcomes. In dominant contexts, the focus might usefully be on trying to influence the goals and strategies of top-level leadership. In impersonal competitive contexts, it might be on strengthening alliances between mission-oriented public officials and other developmentally-oriented stakeholders. In personalised competitive contexts, gains are more likely to come from the bottom-up—via a combination of local-level initiatives plus a broader effort to inculcate a shared sense among a country’s citizenry of ‘all for education’.

Liquidity or Capital?: The Impacts of Easing Credit Constraints in Rural Mexico. Inter-American Development Bank, June 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.18235/0003336.

Abstract:
This paper evaluates the effectiveness of easing credit constraints for rural producers in Mexico through loans provided by a national public development finance institution. In contrast to most of the existing literature, the study focuses on the effect of medium-sized loans over a two- to four-year time horizon. This paper looks at the effects of such loans on production and investment decisions, input use, and yields. Using a multiple treatment methodology, it explores the differential impacts of providing liquidity for working capital versus providing credit for investments in fixed assets. It finds that loans increased the likelihood that producers grow and sell certain key annual crops, in particular among recipients of working capital loans. It also finds significant effects on production value and sales (per hectare), with similar impacts for recipients of both types of loans, with gains in yields driven by changes in labor quality and more intensive use of key inputs. There is no evidence of significant effects on the purchase of large machinery, but there are impacts on the acquisition of cattle. Overall, the results reported in this paper suggest that lack of liquidity is at least as important as lack of funding for new investment in capital for rural producers in Mexico. Producers benefit from easing their credit constraints, regardless of the type of loan used for that purpose.
